Thank Goodness!

My mojo is back!  I cleaned my studio and then laid out the stamps I needed to use.  I turned the IPod on and played my downloads from Glee, The Eagles, and The Beatles.  The ideas have started flowing again.  Check out The Inkspot of Kirkwood and look for my new class.  They are All Occasion Cards.  They are very versatile.  I am teaching one class on two different days, one at 1:00 pm and one at 6:00 in the evening.  I'll put the dates up later.  Have a great weekend!

Do you Remember?

Do you remember where you were when the towers were attacked? I'll never forget.  I was getting ready for the first day of preschool.  I remember seeing it live on TV and the first thing I did was call my mom and dad.  I then called Mike to inform him.  He works close to the Federal Reserve and the Arch so I wanted to make sure he was being careful.  I remember the faces of the mothers dropping their children off at school worried that their children would be okay and reassuring them that they would be fine.  I remember picking my children up from school and hugging them like there was no tomorrow.  We put our flag out, the one we only put out on holidays.  It has never come back in the house.  I remember going to church with my family.  I cried and prayed.  To this day I can't watch the TV when they show the towers colapsing.  Today I'm remembering and praying for those lives lost, their families, and those  firefighters who worked endlessly.  I am also praying for those in the Armed Forces and their families who have sacrificed so much.

Just Wondering????

Do any of you just get a creative block?  I'm really struggling to actually make something, anything.  I have the ideas in my head but can't seem to start on them.  Should I just stand in my studio until a start?  I need to get my mojo back!!! Any ideas?  I'm just throwing this out to the vast universe of the internet.
